1) Go to Dynasty Net's java chat 2) Type in your nickname
3) dtoid-brawl as the channel
4) Click Chat
Simple and easy to use, if you want to use voice chat, I suggest steam or skype.
If you are having lag problems, check the Wii section of this guide.
Team Fortress 2
If you have not been coming out, you have no idea what you have been missing, machinema, rock paper scissors, pick-ups, and general shenanigans.
First plug – Eschatos made another steam group due to the other one being dead and locked. Its open to the public and we’ll be using it to post announcements for things like FNF, TFT, Machinema filming, and co-op nights among other things. Many of these are also being organized on the forums ScottyG was kind enough to set up, which leads me to…
Another plug for the forums! They are quite active and if you play TF2 on the server you should probably go make an account and post there, you can view them here.
Not sure how much I’ll be around tonight, going out for happy hour(s), depends highly on the level of drunk and the time we leave the bar.
Starship has been taken off rotation, you can still vote for it however. Still have not gotten around to doing spring cleaning on the map list, this will happen eventually.
I’ve also been seeing the server get very full very fast, while this is great, we can only have 24 people participating at any one time, so below I’ve listed an IP for an overflow server that a friend of mine runs. If the server is full, do the following…
1) Join the overflow server
2) Open the server browser menu, double click on the destructoid server and click ‘auto-retry’ and then click ‘join as soon as a slot is available’
3) Hit Esc to close the menus, this will allow you to continue to play TF2 with other dtoiders while you wait for a slot in the main server to open.
Again, if you would like to get placed on the reserved slot list for dtoid readers, please POST YOUR STEAMID HERE. Your reserved slot is a privilege, not a right, and asshattery will get it revoked.
Wow, what an awesome video. Well done.
I actually don't have to work on a Friday night (first time EVAR) so I'll be making my third appearance to a FNF tonight!
Why would someone play brawl with IRC when there is ventrilo?
I don't get it, you are playing with your hands already, and now you want to try and type too?
@Chee - So you can organize your own voice chat like Skype, where its nice and private or for people who don't have access to voice chat by your console.

AWESOME video. I had no idea it would turn out so well when we were doing it.
Nice music selection too ;)
Damnit I need to start coming back to these things.
Epic, I'll be there tonight as always, but I have to pull a double shift for two TF2's xD.
Awesome vid. And thanks for posting the map pack, makes things much easier. Bonk
As you know, school stuff, so I'll either get on TF2 last minute or I'll play on the weekend.
Wish I could be on. Too busy though with the semester almost at a close.
FOOM!

Oh my god. I swear to Christ, fail should be a fucking director or something. Really really really well done.
Fail is awesome. Your hired for my movies!
Also why oh why must so much fun and filming be had on Fridays =(
I might be on at some point, depends on when people are showing up for our weekly shindig at my place. If I am it will be early.
Forgot, soundtrack almost finished. Get out and vote suckers! Practice your democracy for when we have to elect something.
Wicked movie, I might be on the server in a bit, can't stay long because I have to wake up early tomorrow... meh
Also, timezones suck
This will be awesome. More filming and rock paper scissors please.
I might get in on the brawl tonight. Its been a stupid week and I just wanna game!

Don't be afraid to speak guys, Christ.
@HPH: WoW won't suck your dick like TF2 will.
Always a treat to enjoy TF2 exactly how Valve wanted us too. Over the top stupidity and jocularity!
lol nice video!

OK, I need to make sure to not get locked out tonite...
I had fun for what I could play.
Fun, but more Civ tomorrows.
No "Chocolate Rain" on the demo bit?
CannedPeaches: no, sorry.
Wow Im glad the video turned out so well it took us forever to film that thing
I need to start playing TF2 again. I know you all love me.
